Are you sure you're actually getting gdm? The latest round of updates
added a Fedora "theme" to kdm that makes it look a lot like the
default gdm ...
Almost certain yes - running kcontrol and setting login manager
GUI style to KDE Classic mad no effect at all.
And it looks 100% identical to the gnome gdm greeter
(which is very very different than kde - i have the clock
turned on for example and it is not there).
Looking at the startup script /etc/X11/prefdm
I see that if the preferred greeter fails
then it runs in order:
gdm - kdm - xdm.
I assume kdm failed and it defaults back to gdm.
